Helsinki, Forever is a montage film on the city of Helsinki by the award-winning Finnish film director and academic Peter von Bagh.

It shows Helsinki as captured by leading Finnish feature film and documentary makers over a period of a hundred years.
Stone Pastures
Stone Pastures tells the story of a nomadic family living on the Himalayan plateau of Chantang, Ladakh. In this high altitude cold desert, the most inhospitable of environments, father Sonam, mother Phuntsok, old uncle Tsewang, and the boys Padma and Kunsang struggle rearing pashmina goats. This struggle contains a paradox: Ladakh's gritty, rocky conditions give rise to the finest of materials, pashmina wool. Produced by the nomads' goats as a warm undercoat, this is the raw material for luxurious Kashmiri shawls, and the family's only source of income.
